A Freetown woman was arrested Saturday after the alleged physical abuse of her 7-month-old son, according to Freetown police.

Meaghan Vogel, age 33, of 9 Lafayette Park, is being held in custody on $5,000 bail. She is due to be arraigned today in Fall River District Court.

Vogel is charged with assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon and reckless endangerment of a child.

Police say Vogel’s husband drove their baby to Tobey Hospital in Wareham just before 4 p.m. on Saturday. He did not call 911, but called a family member who, in turn, called police. The child was released from the hospital into the protection of the Department of Children and Families.

Freetown police allege that the boy sustained injuries to his face and body.
